„Michel Nedjar“ und „Ombres-Ailes“
In the organizer's words:
Parallel to the exhibition "Marta! Dolls, Pop & Poetry", we are showing films about the French art brut artist Michel Nedjar (*1947), who was a friend of Kuhn-Weber in the early 1980s.
Nedjar, a trained tailor with Jewish-Algerian roots, and the Mexican filmmaker Teo Hernández (1939-1992) were a couple from 1967. Nedjar discovered his fascination for dolls on trips to Latin America together. From 1976, he made his first dolls, fetish figures soaked in mud and blood and made from rags and garbage.
In the soundless Super 8 portrait by Hernández, Michel Nedjar can be seen creating these early objects.
Ombres-ailes (Shadow Wings) combines pulsating impressions of color, light and sound. The flickering images of artist friend Pascal Martin with a hashish pipe are reminiscent of the French poet Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867) - the epitome of the eccentric, opium-addicted Montmartre dandy.
